Submit your child's writing

In each issue, and here on the website, we will feature work from our readers. This could be stories, poems, articles, drawings, comic strips… whatever creative format your child can dream up! If your child's writing is selected for publication in the magazine itself, we will send them a young writer's certificate to celebrate their achievement

Fill in the form below together with your child, or on their behalf. We review every submission and will contact you if a piece is selected for a future issue.
